"If we get this done, biggest ransom in the history of the world, my friend." Gravitas Ventures has unveiled a trailer for a film called Billionaire Ransom, an interesting action thriller of sorts. The story is about a group of kids from rich families at a boarding school on an island who take matters into their own hands when the campus is taken hostage by criminals. The cast includes Jeremy Sumpter, Phoebe Tonkin, Ed Westwick, Dominic Sherwood, Elliot Knight, Sebastian Koch, and Sara Stewart. Not really sure what to make of this, some weird scenes in this trailer, but maybe it has some intriguing twists and turns. Then again, this seems like it could straight-to-dvd and it would matter either. It's made by the director of I Know What You Did Last Summer who hasn't really made much else since that film hit in 1997. See below. Here's the official trailer...

The film features: Dakota Johnson, Leslie Mann and Rebel Wilson. We've posted comments from a few of the critics, below. Alonso Duralde over at TheWrap, gave it a 60 score. He stated: "The script offers enough laughs to keep the movie from feeling completely disposable...and it outshines many of its genre peers through little touches like not punishing its female characters for enjoying sex and casting Damon Wayans Jr. (as a romantic interest for Alice) in a role in which his race is thoroughly irrelevant." Peter Keough from the Boston Globe, gave it a 50 grade,...

More than two years after the series finale of her NBC hit "30 Rock," Tina Fey's latest creation is being considered for the 2015 Emmy Awards. Indiewire writer Sara Stewart remarked in a Women in Hollywood post, "The new Netflix show from Tina Fey and Robert Carlock [...] is in many ways Fey’s old show dressed up in a new outfit." Fey even joked on the red carpet of a Netflix For Your Consideration event, when asked if there could be a "30 Rock" and "Kimmy Schmidt" crossover episode, that "Dean Winters has volunteered to walk through the background." However, the premise behind "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" does not resemble that of most TV sitcoms. As the opening credits depict, Kimmy Schmidt (Ellie Kemper) and her three "mole women" companions are rescued from an underground post-apocalyptic cult in which she has lived for the last 15 years of her life. Now pushing 30, Kimmy chooses...

You might guess that "Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2" is the cinematic equivalent of a greasy paper plate that should be wadded up and thrown away outside a Sbarro, and you, sir or madam, are a good guesser. Critics and Twitter pundits agree that the new Kevin James flick is bad for humankind. But there's an upside here: Hilarious comments about bad movies are good for humankind. We've rounded up ten good (and/or just irreverent) takedowns of "PBMC2" and ranked them for your disgusted pleasure. 10. The philosophical take. "This oft-ridiculed screen giant is here to answer a question that has plagued mankind for decades now: what would a film be like if every single person involved made as little effort as humanly possible?" -Tom Huddleston, Time Out London 9. Does Blart imitate life? "[Paul Blart] is barely anything at all; a stereotype of a stereotype; a half-remembered punchline; a stomach with a mustache and wheels.

If moviegoers were hoping thriller “Blackhat” and comedy “The Wedding Ringer” could be alternatives from all of the serious awards contenders that have been flooding theaters for the last two months, critics have some bad news. The two movies have been panned in the majority of reviews as stinkers.
The wide releases — one a Michael Mann hacker thriller from Universal and the other a Kevin Hart comedy from Sony — are currently tied on Rotten Tomatoes for an equally “rotten” 31 percent approval ratings from critics.

It’s finally here — the premiere of Gortimer Gibbon’s Life on Normal Street, the original series that was discovered through Amazon Studios’ open submission process two years ago, launching the writing career of former preschool teacher David Anaxagoras.
A hit with Amazon viewers when it debuted as a pilot, the full series has been embraced by TV critics this week, who’ve praised the show as “refreshing and imaginative” (San Francisco Chronicle), “mysterious, whimsical and fun” (Channel Guide) and “exploding with treasures” (Time).
The Chronicle’s David Wiegand attributed part of the appeal of the show to Anaxagoras’ “outsider status” in Hollywood, and called it “reminiscent of a time when kids TV was all about fun and homemade adventure.”
